I could hear your voice as I was reading...

Hi there Tom! I just wanted to pop in quickly and thank you for the 2 Exam prep sessions!!  I passed both exams today – first time out!  I could hear your voice as I was reading through the questions… especially those that were “NO… that’s not even a thing” types of options 😊

Have a blessed weekend!

Once again, please accept my heartfelt thanks for your exceptional guidance, and I look forward to applying the knowledge and skills I gained from you in my future endeavors.

Thanks For Being My Prep Teach

Thank you so much Tom for being my prep teach! Couldn’t have done it with you or all the other teachers at champions.

Thanks For Sponsoring Broker Advice

Hi Tom,
I was a student in your Agency class that ended last night.  I struggled with an online class for several months and finally got frustrated and joined Champions on Monday.  It's SOOOO much better for so many reasons.  You are a great teacher and I learned so much in just a few days.
Also I wanted to thank you for your advice on finding a sponsoring broker.  I've been talking to a 'prestigious' broker out here in The Woodlands who wants 70% to go back to the brokerage.  I'm learning that I need to investigate other sponsoring broker options and also that I do not need to "sell" myself as much as gather information and compare brokers.
So, thank you very much!!
Warm regards,
Kristi S

"Just about 98% off the info on the test is what I seen or heard from the prep class. Your slides were a great help! It really helped me understand easements" - Thankful Student

One Grateful Champion

"Tom, I'm sending you a picture of me with my 2 notices of passing the real estate exams this morning.  I was in your virtual class this past weekend.  You and your instruction assisted me GREATLY in my success.  I did exactly what you recommended.

  • I treated today as a special day
  • I got to the center early and did all the things I do to relax
  • Of course I did ample study preparation after your class
  • I read all the questions all the way through & read each answer - several times
  • I marked all the math questions and did those at the end.  All your math slides helped me study.  I feel confident I got at least 6 or the 7 math questions (if not all of them correct) because of your instruction.
  • I went through all the questions a 2nd time when I finished just to make sure I answered everything
 
Just as you advised, I didn't rush as all.  I will say there was about 15-25% of the information on the exam that wasn't covered during any of the courses.  It was strange but with careful consideration most of the questions you can figure out...but it was extremely tricky.  I completely understand what you were talking about now.
Thank you again for all your assistance.
With Kindest Regards & Gratitude" - Gens J.

Thank You For Your Insight & Instruction

"I was a student of yours at Champions a few months ago. I recently received my real estate license and I wanted to thank you for your insight and instruction.  Rather than begin a career of real estate sales, I have decided to return to Champions to pursue the Professional Inspector license. Although I still have some coursework ahead, I wanted to begin to reach out and build my network of professionals I would love to work with" - Aaron P.

What Clients Are Saying About Realtor Tom Allen

Conroe Clients

First Time Houston Home Buyers

 

First Time New Home Construction Buyer

As a first time home buyer, everything is new and overwhelming.  It was great having Tom buy my side the whole time.  I want to thank Tom for pointing out, after crunching numbers for three hours, that I would be eligible for tax breaks that would help us to stay in our budget.  I would have never known if Tom hadn't pointed that out to me.    Natasha R.

Single Family - VA Loan

Quote Coming Soon. Chris & Katie A.

Condominium Sale

Downsizing is never easy, but Tom was there every step of the way.  He made sure that I got the maximum price for my condo and made sure I had plenty of time for packing and moving.  He even did some of the legwork that a seller would normally do for himself.  I personally know several other Realtors but I picked Tom, and I’m glad I did.  Norman S.

Experienced Realtor Shopper With Great Advice

I had already dismissed four Realtors before I met Tom.  He was the first one to actually listened to what I wanted.  He stayed focused on my goals.  He was not just looking for a commission check—he really wanted me to find the perfect home for me.  We did that, and I am very grateful to Tom!  Morggone M.

Townhouse Buyers

As first time home buyers, we really appreciate Tom’s professionalism and in-depth knowledge of the process.  We got exactly the home we wanted at a great price.  Thanks, Tom!  Gerado J. & Yvonne R.

Single-family Home Buyers

We were about ready to give up!  We were outbid on some wonderful houses, but Tom kept us calm and focused.  Now we have exactly the home we want to begin our married life.  Tom, you da man!  Jesse & Ashley

 

Out-of-town 1st Time Buyers

Tom was always on top of everything.  We were buying the house coming from out of town (Tyler). He helped us with the lay of the land and found the best area for our working commutes.  I think we’re going to be very happy with our new home.  Edward & Taryn

Single-family Buyer

Out-of-state Home Buyers

Communications were good.  Tom was very responsive to our needs—responding to questions and giving explanations for issues.  I’d like Tom to know how much we appreciate how he dropped what he was doing to accommodate us over our house hunting weekend.  Tom was wonderful!  The Puhls

 

Investment Rental Buyer

As a first time investor, I was not entirely sure how the process works.  Tom was able to compute market value of the units I considered, provide market rental rates for my consideration, and we found just what I wanted with a great rate of return.  He was invaluable in my purchase.  Carina

“Finally!  Thank you Jesus (& you Tom)”

 

A Couple Of Home Buyers

Tom knew things that I did not know.  At closing, he was right by my side reading every document and holding everyone accountable.  Tom was quick to respond to every question we had when we needed clarification.  A real professional—and we found our dream home!  Lee & Pamela G.

Out-of-town Home Buyers

I just want to thank you for going above and beyond for us.  This isn’t our first home buying experience but it’s the first time someone truly has our back.  There’s no way we could’ve found our dream home in that ideal area if  you didn’t show us  around on last minute notice. We really do appreciate how great you guys have been to us! Thank you!  Bobby & Crystal

Home Buyer

Tom made what we thought would be a difficult process, smooth and delightful. Thank you for the support and guidance!  Melodee Sadeghi

Title Company Representative

Tom is a real professional and I really enjoy working with him. He works with every client on proactive issues to help insure a smooth and successful closing. By being on top of every issue and detail, Tom provides a high comfort level to both his clients, the lenders and all parties involved. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for a realtor to buy or sell their real estate.  Cynthia R. - Metropolitan Title

 

Bought, Built & Moved Without Kids Knowing!

Tom helped make a dream come true for me.  Moving here from Florida, I just couldn’t find what I was looking for.  Tom pointed me toward new construction and connected me with a builder who met all my expectations.  I was able to surprise my kids when they came home from vacation—they had a brand new home I’d kept a secret!  My family will always remember that day, and Tom made it possible!  Rashanda

Seller From Across The Table

I appreciated your honesty and openness.  Working as a team (seller, buyer, and buyer’s agent) we got the deal done in record time!  Linh Pham

 

Single-family Home Seller

You have been a real pleasure to work with and I will definitely keep you mind as a referral to friends or family. Thank you for your professionalism.  John D.

Home With Challenges Seller

Tom was instrumental in every part of the process.  When I first interview with you I didn't have much else to worry about.  It was in his hands and from the first conversation we had,  I entrusted it in you.  I know I made the right decision.  I couldn't have asked for anything better.

Out-of-town Buyer

Thanks for your responsiveness, persistence, and straightforward advice about pricing and marketing my home. Gary

Out-of-state Buyers

My family and I moved from Illinois to Texas and Agent Tom Allen was a heaven-sent angel! We are new to the Houston area and we were completely overwhelmed. Mr. Tom Allen went above and beyond to help us find the perfect home for our family.  Denice J.

 

Out-of-state Buyer

Gosh, where do I start? Tom is the epitome of professional. However, this only begins to describe him and the service he provides. I became acquainted withTom after he responded to an inquiry I had about a house. I was living outside of Cleveland Ohio at the time and looking to purchase a house in Houston Texas. Well, that house fell through but Tom had asked what I was looking for. I explained what I wanted and he matched up perfectly a few houses I’d be interested in.

His vast knowledge, experience and expertise of the Houston market is second to none. He set up a viewing and after some negotiations I had my house. But that was only the beginning. Tom is ultra informative and he led me through every aspect of the sale and signing of the papers which was flawless. He was right there with me the whole time, able to explain the nuances of Texas living. I can not thank him enough. But there’s more. I needed to have an inspection and some contractor work complete. I was travelling quire a bit for work so Tom offered to be there for the work and inspection. This was AFTER the sale of the house.

He went way out of his way and that is the ultimate salesperson. But that is Tom. He treated me as if I was his only customer. Always responding to my questions immediately and with impeccable clarity. If you are buying/selling a house in the Houston market, you will do yourself a huge favor and relieve a lot of the stress by hiring Tom as your agent. His knowledge of the area is immeasurable right down to the street/community you are looking to be or sell from.  Joe M.

Garden Home Seller

Tom was very honest and helpful, and our experience was great throughout the entire process of the sale of our home. When ever we reached out to him for an update he would always respond and when he had to research an answer and get back to us, he would. During the final sale there were  complications which Tom handled very professionally.  Susan H.

 

Buyer With Quick Closing

We closed in 18 days!  I appreciated the fast response and the willingness to help fulfill my wish list. Patricia H.

Out-of-state Condominium Buyer

Tom was chosen by my Realtor in Treasure Florida to find a place for me to live in Houston. I am just elated he chose Tom. He is truly a professional. We closed the deal and I presented him with wine and an invitation for dinner. We still touch bases.  Erra

 

Home Seller

I’ve known Tom for years. He is just the hardest working, nicest, most helpful, most available person one could ever meet.  After my mother passed away, he helped me in every way possible to prepare her home to sell it. I had never done this process before and he was beside me all the way.  Judy K.
